Print device definitions and printer forms

Working with print device modes

After you define the functions for a print device definition, you can combine these functions into modes.

A mode is a combination of functions that you define to allow the print device to meet specific printing needs.

For example, you could create a ``Final Printout'' mode for the HP LaserJet that would include the functions for 10 cpi, Emphasized printing, and Near-letter quality printing.

As a network supervisor, you must determine what your printing needs are and then define the modes you will need.


NOTE: In most printers, the order of the functions is important. See your printer's documentation for more details.
